I've been playing a lot of Words With Friends on Facebook and Android lately. Its been driving me crazy lately that they've added 39 accomplishments but haven't provided anyway to see all the accomplishments you've gotten or which remain. Here are some of the ones I've found so far.

I also looked around the zynga servers and found a bunch of badges that aren't officially available. Check them all out below. To be clear - I haven't earned all of these badges. Just 29 of them. I haven't had a 600 point game or a 300 point word.

So there are three big questions that remain:

1: This is already more than 39 (41 to be exact!). What accomplishments are left? And which of these are officialI assume a lot are point based. A few more milestones could easily fit in there. I'm surprised they have 600 point solo game, but don't have anything higher than 650 point combined game.

2: Which badges when?

It is also unclear where badges point limits cap out. For instance, I've definitely had combined point games over 650, in fact, a few were over 850 - but those badges never showed up.

3: Cross Platform accomplishments?

I play on Facebook and Android. Android doesn't give me an alert when I unlock an accomplishment, but Facebook does. I played a 100 pointer the other day on my Android, but when I logged onto Facebook I didn't have a new badge. What gives? Those don't come along every day!

Any ideas?
